Default Time to put the top back on...

Its a depressing day when the doors and top must go back on after being off for about 3 months...

We are good for no top easily from may through Oct. Plus we can add a few weeks in the fall, winter and more in spring.

Its not cold yet but I have to park it at school all day and its finally gonna rain the next couple days... I've had it off all summer without worrying about the rain, but i guarantee it'll be off as soon as things clear up! 👍

ME TOO!

The perks of California, I am a midwest military transplant so I keep the top off if it's nice out. Some mornings rolling into SF and it's 45 degrees going thru the Caldecott tunnel but always warmer in the afternoon.

Natedodge23 you should look at getting a trail cover. It's the only way I can get the most out of taking my doors off and having my top down. This way I can park it at work all day without having to worry about a fluke rain shower. Our summers are too short and unpredictable to not have a trail cover.
